Looks like it's a done deal....



SO...where does that leave Baggett?

Are Rocky Mountain hoping to wrap up the 2021 season with two injury prone riders?

Baggett must be getting a "better" ride elsewhere.

Yes. He was damn good his year at factory kawi. I’ll throw some money down he finishes with more than 200pts in SX for 2021

No denying his stint at factory Kawasaki was great. I'm not sure he'll be able to get back to that.

I'm not his biggest fan, but another fast guy on the track is always a good thing.

Maybe in outdoors but SX too? With Baggett's seemingly permanent hand injury Savatgy may just be better pick. Should be interesting to see.

BB4 needs a change. He needs to be fully healed too, but change will be good for him. Hopefully the rumors of him not getting paid by Butler aren't true. Blake reminds me of Windham a bit, VERY smart, probably too smart for MX. Always in his own head.

I agree that permanent #4 with recent Supercross and Outdoor moto wins trumps JS17, but Joey hasn't been able to show his full 450 potential just yet.

Looking at the 2019 SX results BB4 and JS17 exchanged better finishes a lot with BB4 having a better top overall finish than JS17. However, there was a lot or races Joey straight up beat Blake. Disregard the 2019 results and I personally believe it's still a toss up as to who is the better finisher. My bet's we see a hungry Savagty with something to prove.

With this field, nope!
6 weeks in and the field probably wont be so thick, as usual.
True but Who’s to say Joey will be one of the healthy ones? He didn’t even make a SX race last year due to an off season SX injury.

Sneaky good second half of the season for Joey.
Here’s hoping his outdoor series does just as good.

Joey knows he has closely fought against ZO and CW and they are the current champions and that has to motivate him and bring him some confidence. If healthy I believe he's top 10 outdoor lurking for top 5 and sneaking a podium when things go his way.

He needs to survive and improve the next 2 years and he'll have better chances for indoor podiums then.
